This list is based on projected value in a head-to-head points league that rewards goals, assists, plus-minus, power-play points, penalty minutes and shorthanded goals for skaters, and wins, saves (detracting for goals allowed) and shutouts for goalies.

In practical terms, that means this list heavily weights goaltenders who see a lot of playing time and goalies who face a lot of shots ó meaning bad goaltenders on bad teams who are slated to see a lot of playing time have a lot of value compared to decent or even good goaltenders stuck in timeshares.
